Programming Frameworks Q&A
|
|
|
The SNIA Networking Storage Forum recently took on the task of making sense of the “wild west” of programming frameworks, covering xPUs, GPUs and computational storage devices at our live webcast, “You’ve Been Framed! An Overview of xPU, GPU & Computational Storage Programming Frameworks.” It was an excellent overview of what’s happening in this space. There was a lot to digest, so our stellar panel of experts has taken the time to answer the questions from the live audience in this blog.
